“Of course, there’s crazy and then there’s crazy. The kind the Resnick Institute is looking for is born of great intellect uninhibited by convention. “Truly disruptive innovation can turn on its head our preconceived notion of how the world can be,” said the institute’s director, Harry Atwater, as he introduced the 2015 award winners at a panel discussion held in Aspen, Colorado, this past July.” – Source @ NASA: Caltech institute calls for ‘crazy new science’ to save the planet by Bob Silber, NASA JPL

My developer is trying to convince me to move to .net from PHP.
I have always disliked the idea because of the expenses.
But he’s tryiong none the less. I’ve been using Movable-type on various websites for
about a year and am anxious about switching to another platform.
I have heard good things about blogengine.net.
